I got my Permanent residence recently and I am planning to apply my parents visitor visa.
I haven’t applied for their visa till now and it’s been 2 years I haven’t met them.
I am confused should I apply for their visitor visa or super visa? I meet the income eligibility (I.e., more than $50K). Parents don’t have any government job and not many strong ties back home.
Please suggest should I apply for super visa for my parents or visitor visa?

1. Your choice. But if they intend to stay for less than 6 months, ordinary TRV is fine.

I'm Canadian citizen, and in Canada for 15 years, my parents never visited me in Canada. We applied for their visitor visa and same got refused thrice.
My Mother's refusal reasons
• You do not have significant family ties outside Canada.
• The purpose of your visit to Canada is not consistent with a temporary stay given the details you have provided in your application.

My Father's visa refusal reasons,
• I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as required by paragraph 179(b) of the IRPR (https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/SOR-2002-227/ section-179.html). I am refusing your application because you have not established that you will leave Canada, based on the following factors:
• You have significant family ties in Canada.

• The purpose of your visit to Canada is not consistent with a temporary stay given the details you have provided in your application.

Both my parents are old and have no intentions of staying longer in Canada.

Please suggest.

We are 4 siblings, my 2 brothers are in India, one sister is in New Zealand, and I'm the only one here in Canada.
We planned visit of 6 weeks.
Super visa is expensive and with no guarantee.

Thank you for your reply
Actually we applied 5 days before and got appointment message today. That’s why wondering, Isn’t this very fast .
But you always get request for biometrics first before eligibility and background check are even started. Biometrics request can come within 24 hours.
